Chelsea have won 11 successive matches since the Frenchwoman took over from Emma Hayes in the summer and sit top of the Women's Super League (WSL) table. Their 3-0 win over Celtic in the Women's Champions League on Wednesday meant they reached the quarter-finals with two group games to spare. "As a club it's always important to make sure after four games you have the opportunity to qualify," said Bompastor.

On Russia 1, the Russian state channel - war against the US. "To use their Storm Shadow, their SCALP and their ATACMS, you need a launcher, the missile itself and a satellite navigation system. For us, there is a simple answer, let's destroy NATO satellites and more specifically, the American satellites that fly above us. They could not prevent it, it would be a challenge for them, a real slap in the face because America has always declared that attacking its satellites is a declaration of war, by doing this, we would be getting back at them by saying, you want a Cuban missile crisis? You will have a Cuban missile crisis, with each strike (with American weapons), there will be a satellite on the ground."

‘Total oppression’: West Bank children being killed at unprecedented rate Mohammad was 12, a football-mad teenager who spent his days dreaming of a career on the pitch and his last minutes practising ball skills. Ghassan was 14, a quiet, generous teenager who ran errands for elderly relatives, with an adoring six-year-old brother who stuck to him like a shadow.. Both boys were shot dead this summer by Israeli soldiers, victims of an unprecedented surge in attacks on children in the occupied West Bank and East Jerusalem. In the last year Israeli troops and settlers have killed 171 Palestinian children there, equivalent to one death almost every other day, according to UN data. More than 1,000 others have been injured. The youngest victim was a four-year-old girl, shot in the head when she and her mother were sitting in a taxi near a checkpoint in January. Officially there is no war in the occupied West Bank, and the scale of death in Gaza has overshadowed the losses there. But children are dying in greater numbers than at any time since the Israeli army seized and occupied the area in 1967. Guardian media

17 November 2024, 00:03 GMT “I’m a veteran of the special military operation, I’m going to kill you!” were the words Irina heard as she was attacked by a man in Artyom, in Russia’s far east. She had been returning from a night out when the man kicked her and beat her with his crutch. The force of the strike was so strong that it broke the crutch. When the police arrived, the man showed them a document proving he had been in Ukraine and claimed that because of his service “nothing will happen to him”. The attack on Irina is just one of many reported to have been committed by soldiers returning from Ukraine. Verstka, an independent Russian website, estimates that at least 242 Russians have been killed by soldiers returning from Ukraine. Another 227 have been seriously injured. Like the man who beat Irina, many of the attackers have previous criminal convictions and were released from prison specifically to join Russia’s war in Ukraine. The BBC estimates that the Wagner mercenary group recruited more than 48,000 prisoners to fight in Ukraine. When Wagner leader Yevgeny Prigozhin was killed in a plane crash last year, Russia’s defence ministry took over recruitment in prisons. These cases have severely impacted Russian society, says sociologist Igor Eidman. "This is a very serious problem, and it can potentially get worse. All the traditional ideas of good and evil are being turned upside down," he told the BBC. "People who have committed heinous crimes - murderers, rapists, cannibals and paedophiles - they not only avoid punishment by going to war, the unprecedented bit is that they are being hailed as heroes." There are numerous reasons why Russian soldiers lucky enough to return from the war would think they are above the law. Official media call them "heroes," and President Vladimir Putin has dubbed them Russia's new "elite". Those recruited into the army from prisons either had their convictions removed or they were pardoned.

Understanding the Christian Broadcasting Network, the force behind pro-Trump TV Pat Robertson has been the driving force behind CBN since its inception Photo by Win McNamee/Getty Images When the news broke earlier this week that several senior members of the Cabinet were holding weekly prayer meetings, few noticed the exclusive source behind the scoop: Jennifer Wishon of Faith Nation, a new Facebook Live news magazine — and arguable mouthpiece for Trump propaganda — from the Christian Broadcasting Network, or CBN. While Faith Nation may be new, CBN is anything but. With a long and controversial history particularly when it comes to its founder, Pat Robertson, CBN has been at the forefront of the culture wars since the network’s inception in the early 1960s. The network that would ultimately become CBN was founded in 1960 by 30-year-old Marion Gordon Robertson (he chose to go by “Pat,” disliking the feminine connotations of his birth name), son of former US Sen. Absalom Willis Robertson. Pat Robertson, then a recent born-again Christian, began broadcasting religious programming in late 1961. He funded his project through small-scale individual and local church donations in the Portsmouth, Virginia, area where the station was based. The funding appeals were initially unsuccessful, and Robertson held a telethon, setting a goal of convincing 700 viewers to each donate $10 a month: enough to keep the station going. The appeal worked — and the name for Robertson’s faithful, “the 700 Club,” became the name of the network’s flagship show: a Christian religious variety show that blended preaching, interviews, and religious music, including hymns and gospel. The 700 Club became increasingly political in the late 1970s, and news segments were added to the purely devotional program. Meanwhile, CBN brought in enormous revenue with wider family programming, including CBN Cable. Rebranded as the Family Channel in 1998, the channel was later sold in a package with Robertson’s other media properties for $1.9 billion to News Corporation and renamed Fox Family, then was bought by Disney and renamed ABC Family in 2001; the channel is now known as Freeform. Yet as part of Robertson’s savvy original conditions of sale, which required the channel’s new owners keep the show in syndication, The 700 Club remains an integral part of the programming, even though the branding now tends more toward Pretty Little Liars than Protestant evangelicalism. This means that today, The 700 Club, and Robertson, remain wildly popular. CBN estimates that a million people a day watch The 700 Club either in syndication or in its current format on CBN.com. But CBN itself is entering the Trump administration in a new format. Unlike the staid, older-leaning 700 Club, its latest political show, Faith Nation, is more obviously geared to younger, social-media-savvy viewers. It airs on Facebook Live, one of its on-camera anchors is a self-described social media expert, and the show frequently exhorts viewers to like or tweet their support. It represents a new era for CBN: one in which the network actively seeks to mirror and respond to the secular world’s influencer-led, highly curated internet landscape. CBN is helmed by Robertson, a household name for his controversial views and a bold sense of conservative activism Throughout his tenure with CBN, Pat Robertson, now 87, has proven a controversial figure, one whose rhetoric helped kindle the culture wars of the ’80s that have carried into the 21st century. Alongside other prominent televangelists and conservative media personalities like Jerry Falwell and Phyllis Schlafly, Robertson has been integral in both using the media to galvanize a Christian evangelical voter base and advocating for a more direct role for his understanding of Christian values in (conservative, Republican) politics. Among them, however, Robertson has remained particularly inflammatory. His most infamous statements include a claim that gay people wear sharp-edged rings to deliberately cut strangers to infect them with AIDS, a prediction that God would send hurricanes to punish Disneyland Orlando for hosting special days for LGBTQ families, and that a series of 2012 tornadoes that raged through the Midwest was the result of Americans’ failure to pray enough. Still, Robertson’s popularity was sufficient to propel him into politics; in 1988, he launched a failed bid to win the Republican nomination for president, ultimately losing to George H.W. Bush. Robertson has since channeled his political aims into advocacy for conservative policy influenced by his reading of Christian doctrine. In 1988, after losing the Republican primary, Robertson used the remainder of his campaign funds to establish the Christian Coalition, a voter mobilization effort for conservative Christians based on the mailing lists of Robertson’s original campaign. That coalition devolved into a number of state chapters, the Texas branch of which gained tax-exempt status as a social welfare charity. After the initial coalition lost its tax-exempt status as a result of its political campaigning, the Christian Coalition of Texas rebranded as the Christian Coalition of America, which still functions as a grassroots advocacy group for what they call “pro-family” policies, which include anti-abortion and anti-LGBTQ platforms. Robertson is also the founder of the ACLJ (American Center for Law and Justice), which advocates in court on issues it sees as threats to religious liberty. Robertson and his organizations have increasingly become associated with Trump and his administration. One of Trump’s personal lawyers advising on the Russia scandal, Jay Sekulow, is the chief counsel of the ACLJ. Robertson himself has interviewed Trump sympathetically several times since his inauguration, and was Trump’s choice for an exclusive sit-down interview shortly after the Russia scandal intensified. Robertson’s perspective has specific political implications Theologically speaking, Robertson is associated with a particularly American evangelical reading of the Bible known as premillennial dispensationalism. This means he subscribes to the idea that human history is divided into particular “eras” according to God’s plan, culminating in a second coming of Christ and a thousand-year reign of peace. This is particularly important insofar as it means that, to a far greater extent than Christians of other persuasions, Robertson and his followers are likely to see the particular shape of geopolitics as a manifestation of God’s divine plan (and, as I have argued previously, to see potential political chaos as an ultimate “good” because it helps to bring about the end of days). Understanding Robertson’s theology helps contextualize some of his more extreme-seeming statements. The idea that gays cause hurricanes may make more sense to people who see world history and divine action as a constant, active dialogue. But it also spells an uncomfortable conflation of faith with facts. It’s difficult, when it comes to hybrid news-religion shows like The 700 Club and Faith Nation, particularly in today’s unstable political climate, to separate analysis from theology. The 700 Club’s longstanding pro-Israel stance, or even Faith Nation anchor Richard Brody’s reminder to viewers that “those who stand with Israel are blessed,” aren’t opinions that are based on political analysis from either a conservative or liberal perspective. Rather, they’re based entirely on theological analysis, even as the news format (present in The 700 Club but an even bigger part of Faith Nation) suggests to viewers that what they’re getting is actual reporting, however slanted. Instead, CBN operates within its own cross-genre paradigm of “faith news,” offering viewers not predictions or analysis, but prophecy. And because it uses the lens of faith to cast doubt on the mainstream media more generally — implicitly playing into the idea that all news is, to an extent, “fake news” — it makes it all the easier for CBN to abandon traditional standards of journalism, or to justify conflating reporting with theological opinion.

yes so much media has a bias slant, especially the ones owned by billionaires. Your Christian news above also is pretty high on bias -which is why its always good to have as many sources as possible, and the more 'independent' the better. That video above, I am sorry is pure Israeli propaganda and I am no fan of Hamas or islamic Jihad they do shitty things however- they have both been fostered and created by isarels policies and imprisonment of children who had no trials. The occupation, the apartheid system and the fact they cant go anywhere. add to the mix when you have had all your family killed it is a recipe for resistance Independent assessment of CBN here Christian Broadcasting Network (CBN) - Bias and Credibility - Media Bias/Fact Check
